First, you must create an account, you have a few choices for free versions, so don't worry about budget constraints. Now, the information you've all been waiting, the Nearpod Teacher explanation! As I mentioned earlier in the post, the teacher version of the app is pretty cool.
They "sign in" with their first and last name and can see everything that you share from your version of the application.
#Stack the states lite code
The way the app works is quite simple, once you've uploaded your presentation( I will explain later this process because it's quite cool) you are given a code to which you present to your students. Nearpod Student simply allows for a viewer to link to the the presentation you've created. The Nearpod Student app is designed for the student/ anyone wishing to view the presentation. Nearpod comes in two forms Nearpod Teacher and Nearpod Student. The Nearpod teacher app is designed for the educator, it is the "pusher" for lack of better terms. After using this app, I feel as though it can and potentially will revolutionize teaching using Powerpoint. Nearpod is a push application which allows for educators to push the images on their screen their students' screens. For example Delaware would be a tiny piece where as Alaska is quite large. An amazing feature of this app is the when the students choose the correct answer, the state resizes itself so that it is the correct size in reference to other states. When the students reach the desired height (it varies) they are awarded a badge in the form of a state. When the correct state is chosen the state becomes a Tertis like piece which then must be stacked. The students are asked a question and given four states as possible answers.
The purpose of the app (lite is simply the free trial version) is to engage the students in recognizing the shape and location of states as well as important facts related to each state. Stack the States and Stack the States lite are U.S. As geography can become quite boring and there is a significant breadth of information, many teachers struggle to properly engage their students thus the students find the topics “boring”. This is especially true when teaching Social Studies. Teachers of elementary school students must find ways to engage their students while still teaching them pertinent information.
